An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-15801 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15801/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15801/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-15801","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15801/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-15801","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-53fm-c92p-fxxw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"container_or_infrastructure","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"CRI-O container runtime","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can manipulate checkpoint metadata to perform unintended host filesystem operations when checkpoint restore is enabled.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"A vulnerability was found in CRI-O related to the container checkpoint and restore feature.

Successful exploitation requires that container checkpoint and restore functionality is enabled, which is not the default configuration.
